What is the problem with sound support? I can record and play 
through /dev/dsp here - it's just a initial crackle when
first opening the device.

Generelly it doesn't look to good. It seems at the moment noone is
directly working on something SIMpad related except Alex doing the
bootloader and me doing the build system migration.

We hope to do the next OpenSIMpad release to be based on kernel 2.6,
however iirc there has yet to appear a ucb1x00 oss driver in that
kernel, so things aren't likely to improve until someone fixes that
